Martin Scorsese is sad

OK, nobody denies that Scorsese is a great director.  But what's up with him lately?  First of all, he keeps using Leonardo DiCaprio who just isn't that good.  And is especially miscast in Scorsese's movies.  He could not have been more out of place in Gangs of New York, and wasn't great as Howard Hughes either.

But let's get back to Scorsese.  It seems like ever since Age of Innocence, all his movies get better and better looking, but with less and less substance there.  This new movie, Shutter Island, starts off like it's going to be great, but turns out just silly in the end.

Please Mr. Scorsese, give us one more Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, or Goodfellas and I will never say another bad word about you.  Oh, and leave Leonardo DiCaprio out of it.  Thank you.
